Concept introduction:
The curved arrow notation keeps track of electrons in an elementary step. Curved arrows are drawn from the electron rich to electron poor sites. An electrophilic addition step occurs when a species containing a non-polar pi bond (as part of a double or triple bond) approaches a strongly electron-deficient species (an electrophile). A new bond is formed between atoms of the pi bond and the electrophile. The product of each of the electrophilic addition is a carbocation, which is highly unstable and will react further because it has a positive charge and lacks an octet.

- Make sure to draw the curve arrows please and the product of the reactionarrow_forwardDraw the products for the addition reactions below in the boxes. Then, draw the FULL electron-pushing mechanism for the reactions, including all intermediates (with formal charges and lone pairs of electrons) and all electron pushing arrows. Label the electrophile and nucleophile in each step.arrow_forwardClassify each reaction as either a proton transfer reaction, or a reaction of a nucleophile with an electrophile. Use curved arrows to show how the electron pairs move.arrow_forward
- Add the necessary reaction conditions above or below the arrow in this organic reaction. Also if a major product is missing from the right-hand side, draw it in.. 0 :0 + I OHarrow_forwarddraw a reaction energy diagram for an exergonic rxn that is slow. in your diagram what in your diagram show your reaction is slow?arrow_forward(Simple Reactions) Draw the products for each reactions that are shown.arrow_forward
- 2. Use curved arrows to show electron movement in the reactant side and draw the product/s of the Lewis acid-base (nucleophile-electrophile) reaction. Label the nucleophile and the electrophile. Draw in all lone pairs and charges where appropriate. Iarrow_forwardRelate nucleophilic addition and electrophilic aromatic substitution in a life situation. Example. In a substitution, there is a leaving group and an incoming nucleophile. Someone may leave, but someone will come along. That someone may be a substitute, but it can form stronger bonds in the new molecule.arrow_forwardHow might nucleophilic catalysis work?Draw out a possible mechanism.arrow_forward
- Consider the reaction between 2-methyl-2-butanol and HBr, shown below. но HBr Brarrow_forwardCO2 Follow the curved arrows and draw the product of this reaction. You do not have to consider stereochemistry.arrow_forwardDraw the products of the following reactions. Use curved arrows to show where the pair of electrons starts and where it ends up.arrow_forward
